Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

The truck should come stock with it. I'm 6'4" and it's saved me numerous times.

I saw a speedway blue double cab looked like a 2012 sassed with fiberglass front and rear panels in Stanford a few weeks ago. The thing was a beast.

 

Did it have Fordyce Recovery stickers on Patrick? I think I've seen it before

 

Playing around in Trinity County over Tday. Gorgeous weather but damn do we need rain.

 

Maybe. I saw it in passing. I just gave him a fist pump as I drove by. How's work going? You getting those tires soon?

 

Now I'm hungry...

We do indeed. One thing no one ever seems to talk about is the decline in the underground aquifer. Parts of the central valley are sinking. We (Santa Clara County) also get a lot of water from the various wells located throughout the county and we are increasingly relying on Hetch Hetchy or other stored water...gonna start sinking here too.

 

They did a story on it a couple of weeks ago. Some parts of the Central Valley are sinking at a rate of one foot per year!

 

Yep, water is a huge issue facing the state.

 

Work is good, setting doors and windows right now. Sounds like the next job is either gonna be in Los Altos or Menlo Park. Tires are ordered, just waiting on the damn things to ship. The waiting is killing me

 

Yeah Garrett, hurry up with those tires so we can hit up hollister.

 

I need my skids too before we go. LCA skids, rear diff, gas tank, transmission, and transfer case are all on the way.

Also, tacomahq.com did an article on my build. They asked me a couple questions on monday and asked permission to use photos from my build page. I think the article turned out nice.

Call is for another dry winter, get ready for a really dry year next year

 

Good place to wheel? Wife keeps asking me to go back up to the mountains but I really dont want to drive all the way to bowman again. Was close to 3 hours getting there

 

Yep. I plan On doing my Sierra trips early as I expect the mountains to be on fire.

 

Congrats on the feature man! That's pretty sick, I'd never heard of that website before, some cool/interesting trucks on there.

 

Thanks. I hadn't heard of the website till they contacted me on TW. But it's a cool site.

 

I read somewhere about how some of the reservoirs that litter the bay area require seismic retrofits of their dams. So the ones affect are running at low capacity in case of earthquake. For example, if Anderson Reservoir's dam ruptured it could flood Morgan Hill w/ a 35 foot wall of water and flood SJ with 8 Foot deep water. Anderson is down to 54% of normal because of that while they do the retrofit.

So having dams that can't even hold the water if we had a good rain sucks pretty bad too.

Currently they're charging the bay area aquifers with water from San Luis Reservoir since Anderson can't do that anymore.

 

Headed back up to Lake Almanor for my families Christmas weekend. Supposed to snow good friday and be fine for the weekend. Hope to get some snow wheeling in.

 

oh...LOL, nevermind! I guess bowman it is! I loved the long trail there
